Swim Sessions

Dunes Splash World in Southport, Bootle Leisure Centre and Meadows Leisure Centre will be introducing a variety of new swim sessions that have been specifically designed to match the feedback residents gave in a consultation last year.

This comes as part of Sefton Councils measures to improve the swimming offer in the borough made possible by grant funding from Sport England.

Public Swim

Everyone welcome.

Swim a mile, play with friends, swim and chat- our public sessions are open to all.

Calm Waters

Float away and experience the benefits of swimming in a relaxed pool environment.

Mood lighting and gentle music will create a relaxing atmosphere for participants who will be able to swim in a tranquil environment, enhancing both physical and mental wellbeing, Ideal for those recovering from ill health or those who simply want to enjoy swimming in calmer waters.

Time for our younger swimmers to have some fun in the pool.

Music, floats and fun equipment will await participants. Don't forget to look out for our monthly Wave Rave and inflatable sessions. Splash with friends at your own coloured pool party and visit during the school holidays when sessions will be discounted as part of the Be Active programme. 

Swim Tag
